I landed here a bit after fat people hate was banned from Reddit. Pretty much the only thing I cared for on that site. Since then I've actually managed to get banned from the voat subverse. Who woulda guessed a bunch of narcissistic meat heads wouldn't understand sarcasm?

I was raised conservative/Republican. When it became clear to me that Democrats and Republicans were never actually going to address real issues, I became more of a right leaning libertarian.

The response to Obama's 2008 election victory and a high school teacher, who had graduated from Evergreen, really began my red pilling. Students were chanting things like "We need to remove white from the flag", at school. Our liberal teachers would single me out in class for my more conservative views. I predicted back then that liberalism would get worse as my peers began entering the workforce. I really could not have predicted the hysteria in the past two years.

This election cycle really was a breath of fresh air. As gay as it sounds, my entire teenage years I felt like I was out of place. While I haven't met any alt-righters, trump supporters, or whatever in person, it's great knowing I can come to sites like voat and shoot the shit with others. It's also comforting to know that our numbers are growing.
